Tim Buckley - Honey Man Lyrics

Well, I wish I was your sweet little honey man
Just a hanging around the ol' rising sun
You know you can't hold out against a boy
Who is a, a whiskey fast and a honey slow
Lord, you can't

I wish I was, Lord, I wish I was your
I wish I was your honey man, baby, Lord
Well, I wish I was your honey man
Well, I wish I was your sweet little honey man

And when the bee's inside the hive, woman
You gonna holler in the thick of love
Well, you know, I'll buy you all the Jag I can
This honey man wanna sting you again

I wish I was, Lord, I wish I was your
Well, I wish I was your honey, honey man, baby, Lord
Well, I wish I was your honey, honey man, baby, Lord
Well, I wish I was your, sweet little honey man

When I come a home to you, woman
Oh, your little eyes never flicker
Well, I wish I was that cool, honey
And then your love just wouldn't matter at all

Well, I wish I was your sweet little honey man
Just a hanging around the ol' rising sun
You know, you can't hold out against a boy
Who is a, a whiskey fast and a honey slow, Lord, you can't

I wish I was, Lord, I wish I was your
Wish I was your honey man
Well, I wish I was your honey man
Well, I wish I was your sweet little honey man

I wish I was, I wish I was, I wish I was
Sweet little, sweet little, sweet little honey
Honey man, mama darling
Sweet little, sweet little, sweet little honey
Honey man, mama darling

Sweet little, sweet little, sweet little honey
Honey man, mama darling
Sweet little, sweet little
Sweet little honey, honey man

Well, well, Lord, when the bee's inside the hive, woman
Well, you gonna holler in the thick of love, woman
Well, Lord, I'll buy you all the Jag I can, baby
Well, when a man wanna sting

I can't betray no sheets, woman
No, I'm singing, woman, not to you
Baby, Lord, I'm singing, woman, woman
Woman, woman, woman, woman

Now don't, don't take it away, baby
Oh don't, don't you take it away from me, woman
Don't you, don't take it away from me, darling
Oh no, don't you, don't you, don't you take it away, oh no

No, don't take it away from me now
Oh don't, don't take it away from me now
Don't you, baby darling, take it away, no, no
No, no, no, no, no

Oh no, no, no, sweet little honey
Honey, honey, honey, honey, honey, man, Lord
Thank you, Lord
Well, Lord, Lord
